  1. matip better at breaking the press with his passing , konate is no slouch either , against a physical team I'd back konate with his power and aerial ability , three world class central defenders is a good headache !

  2. Play all three defenders………Vicinius Junior will wreak havoc in Liverpool defence with in particular Trent Alexander arnold and liverpool high line……
    Let's us play a sweeper 5-3-2 with Mane and Luis Diaz as the only forwards……….

  3. 100% Matip of course. Is there much debate here..?!? Konate is a good young player but he's not there yet to claim a starting role.
    *The biggest game of our season,
    *seniority,
    *football intelligence/experience,
    *possibly our best performing CB this season on balance?
    All reasons why Matip is unquestionable starter.

  4. I think Matip has had a better overall season but I would pick Konate. He has grown into the season and has the pace to deal with Vinicius Jr who will attack the space behind Trent. Also he is a threat from set pieces

  5. Sorry but what else do you want Chelsea to do. They can’t compete against city or Liverpool in the league that’s just absurd to ask

  6. Has to be matip he's one of our most consistent players. Konates a baller but he's more liable to make a mistake. Not sure if its just me but konate seems to struggle with low crosses

  7. Matip is brilliant, Virgil gets all the credit and he deserves to be called the worlds best centre half, but Matip is just as dominant in 99% of Liverpools games. Konate and even Gomez could slot in easily next to Virgil and do a job too. We're blessed with four world class centre halves.

  8. Gotta go with Matip. He has experience in the UCL final already. Konate has never experienced a UCL final. Konate will have his opportunity to play in a UCL final down the line. Don't get me wrong Konate is brilliant but Matip is world class.

  9. Love Konate and his pace should help handle Vini jr as Trent goes forward….but Matip's experience is invaluable, and his driving runs forward might break that tightly-drilled block that Real Madrid loves…I don't think you can go wrong with either one, but Matip is probably better……idk Craig, pick for me! hahaha

  10. Chelsea was hyped up!! After signing Lukakaku… And all you pundits went crazy about who finishing 1st…
    Even ManUtD was Hyped too!!…

  11. Matip is the best dribbler in the league who plays defense. The man can carry the ball well and also spot a pass. Matip is the most underated player on the squad… has a couple key goals and assists this season. That is why he is better than Gomez/Konate. He has a very good attacking side… on defence he is not quick but like Virgil he reads the game superbly.

  12. Pair VVD with Konate and play Matip as DM as Fabinho will probably miss out. Matip is talented enough to play that role better than anyone else apart from Fabinho

  13. That's not even a question btw matip and Konate Matip has been consistent all season and am sure no mistakes leading to goal unlike Konate who still learning his trade

  14. Sallah did better in the first half of the season while Mane, Son and Debryne is doing absolutely brilliant in the second part of the season. However Debryne winning the league should boost his chances like any other player so I will go for Debryne
